Types of Mexican Enamel Cookware

Discover Mexican cookware that you can use for stuffed peppers, hominy or tortilla soups, enmoladas-- those are the upgraded version of a burrito--and lots more. These pieces become daily favorites when you use them to cook American or other cultural dishes, as well.

• Look for oval gratins to create rice and fish meals or to stew vegetables in thick moles and other sauces.
• A cast iron pot is perfect for simmering a complex soup, like a pozole, usually made for special occasions.
• Wide griddles are a must for the perfect tortillas. Use the griddle dry and very hot with the tortillas hitting the surface for just a few seconds on each side. Keep them warm in a tortilla warmer afterwards.

Don't forget to grab a molcajete for yourself. This is the Mexican version of a mortar and pestle, made of stone and often featuring iconic animal silhouettes or forms. Use yours to grind spices or make guacamole.

Oven-to-Table Cookware Selections

The beauty of so much Mexican cookware is that it's truly kitchen-to-table. Bring enamel cast iron out to place on a trivet or carry the molcajete straight to the table after mixing avocado or signature piques.
